You can use the format keyword of the string function to add a C-style
control character to the string. For UNIX, just add \n (newline) to the
end of your string. For Windows, add \r\n (carriage return and newline).

; UNIX version
writeu, 1, string('Hello World', format = '(%"%s\n")')

; Windows version
writeu, 1, string('Hello World', format = '(%"%s\r\n")')
